Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

DNA polymerase is an enzyme which replicates the DNA in 5' to 3' direction as well as it performs the exonuclease activity in  3' to 5'.

This exonuclease activity increases the rate of replication with high accuracy. This mechanism of proofreading is known as a proof-reading mechanism which increases the accuracy rate of DNA synthesis by 100- fold.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

Which process of the water cycle occurs when water absorbs 2260 Joules of heat energy per gram?
Korolek [52]
Evaporation occurs <span>when water absorbs 2260 Joules of heat energy per gram.  It is </span><span>process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor.</span> It takes energy for the molecules to break those bonds (to overcome the bonding forces). This energy is the latent heat of vaporization. 
<span>
Water requires the  addition of 2260 Joules of heat energy for every gram of water that evaporates (vaporizes). The heat energy that is required to change water into vapor is called the latent heat of vaporization.</span>

Amino acids are the building blocks of _____.<br> proteins<br> sugars<br> carbohydrates<br> lipids
tester [92]

The amino acids are the building blocks of the proteins.  

Explanation:

The amino acids are the organic molecules made up of a carboxylic group, an amino group and a carbon side chain. The proteins are macromolecules, made up of amino acids. Many amino acids combine to form a protein. The structure of the protein depends on the sequence of the amino acids present in the structure of protein. A different protein has a different sequence of amino acids.
